Stan Lee's SAG card is not in any jeopardy. The comics godfather tweeted over the weekend that he's been offered an exciting cameo in Sony's Spider-Man reboot.

Lee broke free of the 140 character limit by posting the following across several tweets. “It’s been an exciting week for me, but I got a phone call last night that really flipped me out! I’m bustin’ to tell you about it—My pal Avi Arad, producer of the new Spider-Man movie, called to tell me how excited he is about the film. Then came the surprise—Avi told me my cameo is all set for Spidey 4, and when he described it, I realized it’s the best, most unusual one yet! I wish I could tell you what my cameo is, but that would kill the surprise. But I’ll tell you this much—I’m finally in an action scene!”

Everyone was reasonably up in arms and skeptical when the new Spider-Man film was announced. But it's nice to know that "hey, who's that creepy extra" is an element of consistency they plan to keep. (Stan Lee's Twitter)
